Ties into place? (4)

I believe the answer is:

site

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'place?' is the definition.
(I know that site is a type of area of land)

'ties' is the wordplay.
'ties' can be anagrammed to 'SITE'.
But, I'm unsure how the anagram is indicated.

'into' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for site that I've seen before include "Locality" , "Area set aside for building" , "internet location" , "Whereabouts" , "Place for building" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
